Overview
AI-generated summary, 18 Sep 2026
The UniCel DxC SYNCHRON System HDL Cholesterol Reagent (HDL) and HDL Calibrator are in vitro diagnostic reagents designed for the quantitative measurement of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol in human serum or plasma. These reagents are intended for use with the UniCel DxC SYNCHRON System, a fully automated chemistry analyzer, to provide accurate and reliable HDL cholesterol levels as part of lipid profile assessments.
The HDL Cholesterol Reagent and Calibrator are supplied as single-use, ready-to-use reagents for clinical laboratory settings. The system operates in a non-sterile environment, with reagents stored at 2–8°C and protected from light. The calibrator ensures traceability to reference materials, and the reagents comply with FDA 510(k) clearance, IVDD, and IVDR requirements. The device is classified under Class II (device class 2) and is regulated under the FDA’s 862.1150 category for chemistry analyzers.

Questions
AI-generated answers, 18 Sep 2026
What clinical purpose does the UniCel DxC SYNCHRON System HDL reagent serve in laboratory testing?
The UniCel DxC SYNCHRON System HDL Cholesterol Reagent is designed for the quantitative measurement of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol in human serum or plasma. It is used as part of lipid profile assessments to help evaluate cardiovascular risk by providing accurate HDL cholesterol levels, which are a key indicator of heart health.
Are the HDL Cholesterol Reagent and Calibrator single-use or reusable, and how should they be stored?
Both the HDL Cholesterol Reagent and Calibrator are supplied as single-use, ready-to-use reagents. They must be stored at 2–8°C and protected from light to maintain stability and performance. Since they are intended for clinical laboratory use, proper storage conditions are critical to ensure accurate and reliable test results.
What analyzer is required to use the HDL Cholesterol Reagent, and does it operate in a sterile environment?
The HDL Cholesterol Reagent is intended for use exclusively with the UniCel DxC SYNCHRON System, a fully automated chemistry analyzer. The system operates in a non-sterile environment, meaning the reagents themselves do not require sterile handling, but standard laboratory practices for contamination control should still be followed.
How does the HDL Calibrator ensure accuracy and traceability in HDL cholesterol testing?
The HDL Calibrator is included to ensure traceability to reference materials, which helps maintain consistency and accuracy in HDL cholesterol measurements across different tests. This calibration step is essential for reliable lipid profile assessments, as it aligns the analyzer’s readings with standardized benchmarks.
What regulatory pathways have been followed for this device, and what class does it fall under?
The UniCel DxC SYNCHRON System HDL Cholesterol Reagent and Calibrator have undergone FDA 510(k) clearance, as well as compliance with the In Vitro Diagnostic Device Directive (IVDD) and In Vitro Diagnostic Regulation (IVDR). The device is classified under Class II (device class 2) and is regulated under FDA’s 862.1150 category for chemistry analyzers, reflecting its role in clinical chemistry testing.
